ASH-PIT FRAME AND DOOR.

, SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 353,221, dated November 23, 1886.

Application filed Decemherfli) 1885. Serial No. 187,065. (No model.)

To aZZ whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we, WILLIAM Y. HORNE and J A0013 DANZ, 2d, both citizens of the United States, residing at St. Paul, in the county of Ramsey and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ash-Pit Frames and Doors; and we do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, and to letters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

The figure is a representation of the invention in perspective.

Our invention has relation to ash-pit frames and doors; and it consists in the construction and novel combination of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described, and particularly pointed out in the claim.

Referring -by letter to the accompanying drawing, A designates the ash-pit frame, which is constructed of sheet metal is rectangular in form in outline, and has front flanges, B, and rear flanges, 0, extending outwardly from its top and bottom and both ends, the parts forming the frame being securely riveted together at the corners of the flanges by rivets or bolts E.

Between the vertical flanges a a and the end extensions of the horizontal strips are placed rectangular boxes 12, which'are also united to the said vertical flanges by means of rivets, as shown.

D is a door hinged to the ash-pit frame, and

provided with a latch, F, which engages the keeper H, secured to the ash=pit frame at one side thereof and projecting slightlyin front of the same.

The flanges project about two inches all around the frame, which has a depth of four inches extending toward the interior of the pit, or whatever depth is necessary, and the frame receives the courses of brick between the flanges, and the frame is thus built into the wall solidly and securely.

We are aware that it is not new to construct a sheet-metal door-frame in a brick wall or other structure, the same being surrounded with flanges which are hollow for the reception of mechanism for operating the door, and therefore do not claim such devices, broadly.

Having described this invention, what we claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-

The sheet-metal frame having the on twardlyprojecting flanges, the parts thereof being secured together at the corners of the frame by plates and rivets, substantially as specified.

' In testimony whereofwe affix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.

WM. HORNE.- JACOB DANZ, 21
